Lots of new Marvel Television this week. First on Tuesday there is a new episode of Marvel’s Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D. at 9 on ABC. Following the events of last week, Coulson and General Talbot are forced to team up and attend a worldwide symposium on Inhumans, where they suspect Malick has an inside man. As the S.H.I.E.L.D. team gets closer to the truth, an unexpected traitor is revealed.

Then on Friday morning at 12:01 am PT, all 13 episodes of Daredevil‘s second season will go live on Netflix. When we last saw Matt Murdock, his thirst for justice had successfully put the shadowy figure of Wilson Fisk behind bars, the crime rate in Hell’s Kitchen had been lowered and some sense of peace had been restored to the residents of Hell’s Kitchen. But now that Murdock’s Daredevil has become well-known, he must face the burden of fame that comes with attracting the attention of both the general public and the police.

Starting at 8am on Sunday morning Disney XD has three new episode of Marvel animation. First on Guardians of the Galaxy, the Guardians must stop Ronan’s plan to blow up the Kree Supreme Intelligence.

Then on Marvel’s Avengers: Ultron Revolution, Ultron is back and plans to replace humanity with robots known as Ultimates.

Finally on Marvel’s Ultimate Spider-Man Vs. The Sinister 6, Spider-Man and Scarlet Spider must overcome Kraven in order to rescue their kidnapped teammate, Agent Venom

 

Games:

 

The big game news this week is that the Marvel Battleground play set for Disney Infinity 3.0 will go on sale this Tuesday. Look for a full review later this week on LaughingPlace.com, but it appears this new play set will offer something different for Disney Infinity fans, with a four-player brawler style of gameplay.
